Happy Sunday. Starting today, I will be posting a card that fits both Sparkle Challenge (Vintage) and The Creative Crafter Challenge (Anything Goes) on the 15^th of each month. I've created a vintage feel card, I must say, vintage card is not my style so this is my attempt at trying. I used the retired cork paper and use the scissor to rough the edge. On the Beige piece I did the same as well (rough the edge) and used vintage like colors for image. I hope you enjoyed this and be sure to join us at the challenge.

Happy Friday and welcome back to first challenge of February here at ColorDare! I used one of my newly bundle, Boardwalk Fun for this challenge. The background DSP is a lighter shade and I tried to use ink pad and sponge to make it darker but doesn't seem to help, haha. Each of the cabins on the ferris wheel is alternating using the color palettes. I added some big clouds, glad I still have the punch for it. I hope you are able to join us at the challenge and can't wait to see your creation!
